TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Renewal Project R04 has released a prepublication, non-edited draft version of a report titled Innovative Bridge Designs for Rapid Renewal that documents the development of standardized approaches to designing and constructing complete bridge systems for rapid renewals.
The report also describes a demonstration project that was completed in 2011 using the accelerated bridge construction standards developed as part of Renewal Project R04.
SHRP 2 Renewal Project R04 also developed a Innovative Designs for Rapid Renewal Toolkit that describes standardized approaches to designing and constructing complete bridge systems for rapid renewals.
